was declared to be a high capacity fully semi-auto assault/ranch style rifleweapon of murdering murder 2 years ago and I'm not allowed to use it.  The gophers have been breathing a little easier since the ban.

You have quite the way with words  :2funny:  As a Californian I feel your pain.  The way our lawmakers operate is to try and make it as annoying and difficult as possible to buy a gun, rather than making things safer for anyone.
I was waiting for a mission, and for my sins, they gave me one.

Well I took this puppy to the range a few weekends ago with my dad.  Shot beautifully up until the firing pin broke, rendering the cylinder unable to open.   :buck2:  I learned an important lesson about why people generally don't take 80-year-old guns out to the range!

With enough luck my dad and I (ok, mostly my dad) will be able to fix it without taking it to a gunsmith, but we'll see.

What ammo were you using?

It was either Federal copper-plated hollow point or PMC Zapper.  Possibly a mix of both.  My dad suspects that the pin was faulty to begin with when it got into my hands.

Got it fixed up with a fresh pin for only $40!

I also recently picked up a used Browning Buckmark for target plinking.  Standby for pics...
